Quench (2007)
Horrible production/talent can't carry interesting concept
It's sad to say something like this about a well written independent such as this film, but an idea as intriguing as this deserved to be surrounded by talented film makers who could not only avoid giving the image a cheap, film school quality, but could also draw in decent actors to portray these deep characters. Bottom line: you couldn't pay me to watch this piece of poop again. Just in case you weren't convinced the first time, here's a second chance to cement this into your brain.

Arpointeu (2004)
big letdown
This movie had a lot of potential, but it never delivered the kind of scare i was looking for. It started getting pretty f-ing awesome towards the end when the ghost was actually taking over everyone, but the rest of the movie was a big tease that had a lack of violence/deaths. I know that violence isn't everything with a horror movie, but something needed to be added to make up for the horrible acting (especially the American). I was looking for an "Oldboy" quality in this movie, but there was absolutely nothing that shocked or made me say "damn, thats really f-ed up!" Good cinematography can't always save a movie, and terrible editing definitely keeps this movie at the level of being a great concept gone to waste.
Oh, and by the way. Did anyone else notice the DHL delivery guy in the movie? Was DHL around during the Vietnam war?!? Yeah...i didn't think so...
